• Chart detailed SOAP notes and outcome measures in our EMR.
• Submit electronic claims to insurers and collect any resident co-pays.
• Communicate progress and red flags to Perennial physicians, nurse practitioners, and allied-health colleagues.
• Maintain a portable table, linens, and supplies while following IPAC and CMTO guidelines.
